10 Most Attractive Male Athletes

Well, I've seen a lot of these from the men's side, so I thought we'd get a female perspective. Check it out.

Tough Week

Ohio State Men's Basketball-- Lost to Findlay (Yes, if you somehow didn't hear the news, they lost to Findlay. That's spelled F-I-N-D-L-A-Y in case you've never heard of them before.)

Detroit Pistons-- Lost to the Chicago Bulls. The winless Chicago Bulls. The SIXERS beat them for crying out loud!

Ohio State Men's Football-- Lost to Illinois. If you're going to lose, at least make an effort doing it. Boeckman was all over the place, rush AND pass defense sucked...Beanie can only do so much.

Detroit Lions-- Lost to Arizona. ARIZONA?! Good luck on those 10 wins, Jonny. If you can't beat Arizona, you know it's gonna be a rough road. And the rough road begins with today's turnover fest.

What is my world of sports coming to?

Nothing you can do but keep on keeping on and wait for them to bounce back. They always do.

For the first time ever, I find Brady Quinn attractive.

Not much to say, except that I'm a teenage girl who, though I may be the only one in the world, has never found Brady Quinn to be attractive.

But I must say, when I saw a clip of him on PTI with his head buzzed.....yeah. He's attractive to say the least. That man is gorgeous.

He's still got nothing on my Calvin though ;) Go Lions!

LaRussa's an Idiot.

I think most everyone can agree with this. What the heck was he thinking? Albert could be sitting on the beach relaxing with his family during the All Star break. But instead, he came to the game because the fans voted him in because they wanted to see him play. It was the right thing to do.

The wrong thing to do was have LaRussa NOT play, to save him for some extra innings which would never come. So one of the best players in the COUNTRY sat the bench and watched. What a joke.

For a sport that's steadily declining, this man isn't doing much to make the fans like it any more.

Are Mike and Mike Full of Themselves?

Mike and Mike in the Morning used to be my favorite show. I would get up at the break of dawn just to watch these guys chat. I mean, who wouldn't love it? Greenburg constantly ripping on Golic for how much he eats and loves Brady Quinn, and Greenburg constantly ripping on himself for being girly. Add in the cardboard cutouts, laidback studio you feel at home in, Just Shut Up awards, huge microphones and interviews daily with some of the biggest people in sports and you've got quite a show!!

But then add a new modern studio that looks like Sportscenter, fancy mics and a couple new endorsement jobs for the Mike's. Add a Spelling Bee hosting gig. All you have to do is turn on ESPN and you'll find Golic either in the Dick's Sporting Goods commercial, doing a voiceover for the ESPY's or the famous Nutrisystem commercial.

Now they act different. They talk different. Heck, they LOOK different. The show just isn't the same. I rarely watch it anymore. The studio lights are way too bright and you don't feel at home anymore.



I want the old studio back.



I want the old Mike's back.

Falling in love with Arena Football

Not going to lie...I used to joke about arena football. I thought the whole thing was a joke and I never watched. But then, to be honest, I saw a pretty cool ad for it in ESPN mag, as well as a commercial for it on ESPN. Plus, the Mike's were involved. But I saw intensity that really intrigued me, so I was interested.

So I'd flip it on every once in a while, but the Destroyers never aired too much. But yesterday, I watched the entire game and I fell in LOVE with it. The players are having fun, the fans are having fun, and I love how interactive it is. Now, I don't know if I will like it as much the older I get, maybe it's just cause I'm young. But I really think they're on to something.

So I didn't really have much to say, except best of luck to the Destroyers against Dallas! Can't wait to root you on!

The NBA Draft Through a 16 Year Old Girl's Eyes.

So....the NBA Draft. For my Buckeyes, it was near perfect. For my Pistons.....eh. Not unbelievable.

First of all, my Bucks. Sadly, I missed the first two picks due to a softball game, and even though I knew Greg was a shoe in, I wanted so bad to see it firsthand. My brother taped it though so I got to see it. So great for Greg!! At first, I didn't want Buckeyes to go to Northwest because it's so far, so obviously I was disapointed when Portland and Seattle got the first two picks. But the more I read and watch, I'm just so happy for Greg. Portland is a perfect fit, and he'll get the love he deserves. Just putting on hand sanitizer, eh buddy? ;) Gotta love 'em.

As for Mike, I'm super excited for him. Memphis is a great place to go and he isn't too far away. I've heard that Greg has planned on continuing his education during the summer, and I really hope, for his sake, Mike does too. Even though between what he'll make and what his father makes, money will not be an issue for him, um, ever. Haha. But I think he'll do good in Memphis and will have an instant impact. At first when he declared I didn't think he'd be ready for the NBA, but watching his workouts and hearing him talk, I really think he is. He had a nice suit, by the way. Haha.

Daequan- WOW! I was surprised. Pleasantly surprised, I might add. Good for him! I think Miami is a good situation for him to be in. I mean, playing under Dwyane and Shaq and Pat Riley? He'll be whipped into shape, that's for sure! And I really think the Heat will be super successful again once Dwyane and Shaq heal up.

Ronnie Lewis....hoping to see you sign as a free agent. You have the talent and the work ethic. Prove it to 'em, Ron!!

Pistons....ay yay ay. THREE GUARDS?! Are you kidding me?! I mean, okay, I am in LOVE with the Stuckey pick. Great grab. And I really like the Afflalo pick, because I particularly liked him during the NCAA Tourney. But to get down to Meija and still pick a guard? As of now we have Chaunce, Rip, Lindsay, Murray, Stuckey, Afflalo, and Meija. I'd say we're about full of guards, even if Lindsay does retire. (Please don't retire please don't retire) So why not take a chance on a forward or heck some center? I mean, I understand Cheik Samb may be ready but still. You know there is NO way Meija is gonna make the team. He even said himself he'll probably go overseas. Whatever. Joey D is a smart guy and I will trust him.

Here's to hoping Ron gets signed, Chauncey resigns, and the Detroit Lions sign an agreement not to pull an Rasheed and never "GUARANSHEED" anything again!!!!! I mean, it's great to take after a winning city counterpart, and not that I don't think they can back it up but....LET'S PROVE IT ON THE FIELD!!!
